The press reaction is so predictable.
I think the most powerful part of last night's speech, in terms of moving the electorate, was "What have you got to lose?" Directed to the ghetto community, that challenge has power. It won't move the #NeverTrumpists, who are willing to lose SCOTUS to the liberals, but I think it has real power to the low/zero information poor voter.

I did not see Newt on Hannity, thank you for the report. The polls are going to shift, and there is no doubt in my mind that Trump knows, like the back of his hand, that in order to win the presidency, he has to look like a president. He will transform his presentation from the heavy in "The Apprentice," to "Mr. President," which I think is the real Mr. Trump. He uses his actor persona to get attention, and once he has your attention, he transforms. The press will say (as usual) that the real Mr. Trump is phony, and the actor is the real person. Some people will be fooled, but more than enough will (correctly) find him to be genuine.
